At this stage of round one, it will be interesting to see if any of the super blue-chip wide-outs are still on the board. Has a true passion for the game and will do what it takes to become an outstanding player in addition to having very good physical skills. He studies film of NFL receivers and will attend Cris Carter's speed camp this summer. He is also an excellent downfield blocker

its pretty hard to predict who's going to be a star and who's going to be a flop...I mean, the Bears did take David Terrell what, 8th, 9th overall? Obviously he wasnt the only one that though Terrell would pan out...LT at 25 is a bit much, but I'd be interested to know how many other teams aside from the Chargers were interested in LT? I think its funny that he had Washington pick Santana Moss in this thing, its like he was predicting the future

Colts fans should listen to mel kiper. He tells it like it is. Irsay cannot build a winning team.He hires lousy scouts and a pretty stupid GM.

The Browns liked LT but Butch Davis really wanted Gerard Warren...

It's amazing how some of those guys didn't do a thing in the NFL. This was only 4 years ago.

funny things is it happens every year. When I take a look at drafts from the 90's its amazing how many guys ive never even heard of in the early 1st round, and how many guys have turned into superstars that got taken in the late 1st round or even beyond the 1st round. The NFL Draft seriously has to be part luck, because a lot of the time a guy will have a great combine, great individual workout, great interview, then turn into a complete undevoted ******* once he signs that big contract.

Whats wrong with that? Philly wound up addressing the skill position in the first round that year just like he said and David terrell's description wasn't disimillar from every other player bio on the web in 2001. By most accounts DT was arguably the surest bet in the draft.
get a clue.

The superstar of this draft that will be taken "late" will be Matt Jones - imho

Why you should never listen to Mel Kiper Jr.
